Are you handing out in my neck of the wood now? Was there earlier today to get some winter tires installed, and going back tomorrow because two tires are leaking.

Actually I think it cheapens the image, but this look is likely intended to attract the "boy racers".

^^ If they have one with a big TIM HORTON cup of coffee cup on it, I'll get it although the jell-o effect may make the coffee spill at a full stop (lol)

I'd like to see a TLX with these optional Q5 wheels...they're the closest match to the prototype wheels I've seen so far

I love how the jewel eyes look in on-coming traffic. I haven't seen a TLX in my neck of the woods YET, but I've seen plenty of MDX's.

The reflection of the jewel eye headlights on the back end of the car in front of you as you pull up to a stop light is pretty damn sexy. Love it.

I have had my Paws 6 Cylinder Advance in white pearl for 6 weeks and some clown last weekend gave me my first door dings in all my years of driving! Never had a ding on any of my other 9 Acuras! The guy denied it and blah blah blah, police said we can not do anything, due to lack of proof. The next day I went to dent dr. And 98 % repaired, 250 later.

I too had two paint issues and Rallye Acura, said no problem, take it too our own collision shop, and we can wet sand them out, which was the result! I went to the body shop myself, waited ten minutes and they were history!

Oh my goodness, how could that thing possibly ride on real roads!? It is sitting so low!! Wouldn't any imperfection on the road cause the wheels to go up and hit the car!?

It surely will not be good for snowy Calgary right now... LOL!

Randy4 I use Rallye too. That's good to know about their collision shop, but I hope I never need them!

It would do just fine anywhere, Easy fix, flip the switch and raise it back up. Its on bags.

I have not seen one in SF Bay Area Yet...

It is so strange I haven't seen one on the street/highway yet.

We have $hit loads of Honda, Toyota, BMW, MB, Tesla and Porsche.

I do see < 2014 Acura MDX and < 2015 TL. I did see one 2014+ MDX yesterday for the first time.

They're pretty good and service the entire Rallye Automotive Group including MB, BMW, Lexus and of course Acura.

I believe they also will do "off the street" work too.

I have been so busy. I just started lurking the TLX section again. IDK what it is about the BWP TLX. White really looks good on this car.

+1

Other than its vomit-inducing dash design, they definitely hit the exterior outta the park

^^Really? I love the dash, the interior is insane... I love just about everything about the S Coupe.... except for the rear. I don't like where they placed the MB logo... lol, it should have been at the top instead of smack dead in the middle. looks weird.
